Chapter 1138

Conrad felt uncomfortable. He swept a cold glance at the people around and urged the person- in-charge.

“Continue, don’t dilly-dally!”

“Alright, sure.” The person-in-charge immediately went to the front to continue the auction.

Fia sarcastically remarked, “The person who caused trouble is you and you still have the nerve to scold others.”

Silas was a little speechless. This woman really didn’t know what was good for her, did she? Conrad had never

taken such initiative toward anyone before.

“Mommy, you’re being rude!” Irene tugged at Fia’s hand.

Fia rubbed her head a little helplessly. “Irene, talk to your brother for a bit.”

“Mommy…” Irene felt a little aggrieved.

Adrian plopped on Irene’s chair, also not agreeing with his mother.

Fia was a little speechless. “Alright, then I won’t talk to him anymore. Okay?”

Irene and Adrian praised her. “Mommy’s the best!”

Conrad felt a little disappointed. These two children were extra adorable. If he had children, would they be like

them?

“Good day, ladies and gentlemen, we are now auctioning a longevity painting.”

The moment the host finished speaking, a model came forward and displayed the drawing in her hands for the

people below the stage.

The host continued, “This painting was created by Dark Horse Master four years ago. I’m sure those who love ink

treasures are familiar with the Dark Horse Master, right? His paintings are rarely seen, and he has a quirky

personality. He only auctions his calligraphy and paintings on his official website. This is the first time he has allowed

us to auction his work.”

Silas’s eyes suddenly lit up. He leaned down and said to Conrad, “Sir, didn’t you want a

longevity painting to give to Mr. Payne?”

Conrad looked at the painting on the stage, which depicted an old man with a long life, sitting barefoot by a stream,

with a sunny smile on his wrinkled face.

The surrounding scenery was delicately depicted.

He didn’t know who Dark Horse Master was, but he had heard rumors about him.

Four years ago, a bamboo leaf forest painting created a sensation both domestically and internationally, earning

him the nickname “Dark Horse Master”. The painting fetched a sky- high price and was eventually acquired by a

member of the royal family.

He became famous overnight, but he didn’t flood the market with his artwork like typical artists.

He released a few paintings on his simple official website every few months, starting with a base price of zero, and

they would be bid on by art lovers to astronomical prices.

“I want it,” Conrad calmly responded.

Silas quickly raised the bidding paddle. “750,000.”

Fia glanced at Conrad, a hint of a mocking smile flitting across her lips.

Irene and Adrian leaned their heads together, whispering to each other.

Irene said, “That painting looks familiar.”

Adrian replied, “Yeah, Mommy drew it casually when she was fishing on the island.”

Irene replied, “Should we tell the mister?”

Adrian responded, “You’re silly. Mommy needs money to support us. Her paintings can fetch a lot of money, so we

don’t have to worry about her not being able to take care of us.”

Irene said, “But that mister looks pitiful. His legs aren’t in good condition.”

Adrian replied, “That’s true, but he looks wealthy. His modified car costs millions. I specifically looked it up online.”

Irene immediately felt relieved. “If he’s wealthy and likes Mommy, then just let him buy it.” “900,000!” A gentle

voice rang out.

Fia froze. She looked over in the direction of the voice.

In the last row, a man dressed in black sat there holding up his paddle. His features were exquisite, but the warmth

he once had was gone, replaced by coldness and indifference.

Even his once gentle gaze had turned chilly.

Thinking back to the time when she faked her death, she was actually able to hear everything despite having no

pulse or heartbeat due to the medicine Peter gave her.

She had heard Sally’s wailing and Jason’s miserable screams as he smashed things. She heard it all.

Five years had passed, and she didn’t expect to see Jason again, and that he had changed so much.

“Sir, maybe we should reconsider this painting?” Silas saw that Jason was bidding and didn’t want to escalate the

conflict, arousing suspicion from Conrad.

Conrad turned around and glanced at Jason. “Increase the bid.”

Silas was speechless.

Seeing that Silas did not respond, Conrad snatched the bidding paddle and raised it.

“1.5 million!”

Silas, Fia, and Adrian were all left speechless.
